QSO #9,000 in LotW

Silly, I suppose, but I note almost every accomplishment. I’m happy to say that today I worked Ron, K4AKK, from Savannah, TN on 15-Meter FT-8. He found his way into my LotW database as Contact #9,000 (since I started back on the air in Feb of 2011). So that’s a pretty good clip, about 1,250 Qs a year.

I’m also impressed with the participation rate in LotW as that is a 68% confirmation rate. Many of those are DX stations too. Thank you ARRL for LotW, and for those that keep it running!
